Abstract: Cette invention a trait à une architecture de file d'attente dédoublée et à une méthode de rangement de rubriques dans la file d'attente, laquelle file comporte trois parties. La première partie de la file d'attente consiste en un côté écriture dans lequel sont reçues des rubriques à ranger. La deuxième partie consiste en un côté lecture que quittent les rubriques après avoir traversé la file d'attente. Cette circulation des rubriques s'effectue, normalement, du côté écriture vers le côté lecture. Une zone de débordement, située 'hors puce' dans une mémoire externe, constitue une partie de la file d'attente opérant en fonction des nécessités et conçue pour mémoriser des rubriques provenant du côté écriture dès lors que le côté lecture n'est plus en mesure d'accepter de nouvelles rubriques. Lorsque le côté lecture retrouve sa capacité à prendre en charge un volume de rubriques plus important, la zone de débordement transfère les rubriques qu'elle renferme vers ce côté lecture.

Abstract: A system is provided for reading an image stored on a storage layer radiation screen. The system includes a carousel for holding a storage layer radiation screen and a screen scanning system. The screen scanning system includes a carousel mount on which the carousel may be mounted and a rotation mechanism for rotating the carousel mount, rotation of the carousel mount serving to rotate the carousel about a rotational axis which, in turn, causes the screens held on the carousel to move in a circular path about the rotational axis. The carousel is preferably removable from the carousel mount. The screen scanning system also includes an image acquisition optical system positioned adjacent the circular path of the screen, the image acquisition optical system including an excitation system for focusing an excitation beam on a portion of the screen to cause a light emission, and an emission collecting system for collecting the light emitted from the screen. The screen scanning system may further include an optics driver for moving the image acquisition optical system in a direction parallel to the rotational axis of the carousel. A method is provided for reading images stored on multiple storage layer radiation screens. The method includes attaching multiple storage layer radiation screens to a carousel, rotating the carousel about a rotational axis such that the screens move in a circular path about the rotational axis, focusing an excitation beam at a point on the circular path such that the portions of the screens passing the point on the circular path emit light, collecting the light emitted, and moving the point on the circular path on which the excitation beam is focused in a direction parallel to the rotational axis. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and system utilize both the radio frequency (RF) and infrared (IR) parts of the electromagnetic spectrum to locate subjects (i.e. objects and persons) within a tracking environment. The system includes a battery-operated, microprocessor-based badge for each subject to be located. Each badge automatically transmits digitized infrared light signals to provide a fine determination of its subject's location. Each badge transmits RF and IR signals upon actuation of a page request/alert push button switch on its badge. An RF signal is also generated at a timed interval as a "heartbeat" pulse. This pulse informs the host computer that the badge is both present and fully functional. The IR and RF signals are modulated or encoded with badge identification data, page request or alert notification data, and battery condition data. The system also includes ceiling or wall sensors in the form of IR and RF receivers. Each RF sensor converts the encoded RF signals into a first set of electrical signals. Each IR sensor converts encoded IR signals into a second set of electrical signals. In turn, the first and second sets of electrical signals are transmitted to a micro-processor-based collector of the system. The locating method and system are particularly useful in hospitals to determine and monitor the location of patients and/or critical equipment.
